permaculture

[Michael Pilarski <friendsofthetrees@yahoo.com>]

Hello Arina, and dear permaculture family,
I remember when Bill Mollison passed that I wrote: Bil Mollison is dead. Long 
live Bill Mollison!
So I raise the same salute to Scott.
Scott Pittman is dead, Long live Scott Pittman! 

We all have to die so we can become ancestors.  We continue on in the Spirit 
realm and we continue to bless and work for the living. Scott is now an 
ancestor to our permaculture family and I am sure he continues to love and 
work for us all and for the world.
It is nice for us to send our love to Scott.  May his continuing journeys be 
good.

 Dear Friends of Permaculture, and dear friends of Scott Pittman
This is his wife, Arina, and I am finally able to gain access to his 
emails and connect with all the people that he cared for.
Jason sent a lovely obituary to the Permaculture Activist (or was it 
Permaculture Magazine?) and I am including it here as well.
A memorial celebration in Scott's honor will take place on October 15th 
in Santa Fe New Mexico. If you would like to attend, please get in touch 
with me at arina0514@gmail.com
If you are not able to attend but wish to celebrate your shared work and 
passion, please consider bone fires, musical extravaganzas, peach 
planing parties. Please share your plans with me so I can share with 
others.
Scott loved peaches and often wrote and talked about the status of his 
favorite peach trees. After he died, we found abundant ripe fruit on two 
trees that were barren this season, only to become loaded with delicious 
sweetness over the four days of our vigil by Scott's side.
Thank you for holding him in your hearts and for continuing the work of 
permaculture.
Sincerely -
Arina Pittman

 Recently I watched "A Short History Of the English Garden" on public TV.
https://vimeo.com/ondemand/englishgardensep2 - I will probably buy a copy
of this.
The more modern trends interested me starting with Gertrude Jekyll and Vida
Sackville-West then on to The New Perennial Garden which had me entranced.
I took some notes from the show.
The New Landscape Garden (my term) embraces permaculture as well as good
environmental stewardship. I would add that sometimes you see on roadsides
small natural gardens that ocurred naturally,
perfect combinations of clearing with ground cover, wild bushes and trees
of various heights, understory and overstory. These landscape spaces are
truly magical and should also serve to inspire landscape planners,
gardeners and architects. This video gives you a good taste of that from
secret gardens to vistas, modern and natural landscape gardens and
permaculture designs..
